• Abstract:
  The research results described herein are included in four volumes on the ; subject of Durability of Geosynthetics for Highway Applications. Various ; aspects of geosynthetic durability were addressed in order to develop ; procedures that could be used to predict long-term strength losses of ; geosynthetics used in highway applications. This information is essential ; to designers for allowing tensile capacity for geosynthetics used primarily ; in mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) retaining walls, reinforced soil ; slopes, and foundation stabilization.
